Abstract Sensor networks consist of a large number of small, inexpensive sensor nodes. These nodes have small batteries with limited power and also have limited computational power and storage space. When the battery of a node is exhausted, it is not replaced and the node dies. When sufficient number of nodes die, the network may not be able to perform its designated task. Thus the life time of a network is an important characteristic of a sensor network and it is tied up with the life time of a node. This paper presents a survey for designing energy efficient Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) Protocols and identifies future trends in designing energy efficient WSN protocols.
